karzai knows that as long as we are there, he will be there. the other comment i have is that there are 20,000 taliban in the whole country of afghanistan and maybe 100 to 200 al qaeda. i do not understand how the military cannot take care of 25,000. there was a show of a helicopter flying over this town and they said, that is where the taliban are. why don't they just take helicopters and invade the place and get rid of the taliban? host: i will follow his up with comments on hamid karzai, a tweet hear from monte. guest: several good questions here. first, on karzai helping bin laden, i would be very skeptical of this. i see no indication that is the case. president karzai won a disputed election that was messy. there were allegations of corruption. however, most people agree that he won the majority of votes in that election. president karzai owes his office not to the americans, not to the international community, but to the afghan people, as messy as the election was. i do not think there is any indication -- i have not seen any indication
